David and I gave each other a firm handshake, and wished each other. Then Kevin signaled Li Xifeng to start the game.
"Everyone! Light your glow sword!" Kevin gave the final instruction and dashed forward towards his target-Allex.
Now everyone single person's sword were glowing in the evening darkness.
The glowing sword created a pleasant lighting effect in our fight as we defended and attached.
My current target was David and David's target was me. We clashed towards each other, not really caring about other team members.
Our sword clashed with each other, forming a "X". I pulled back and attacked from a different angle, only for him to stop my fierce attack with his defensive moves. His expressions twitched with every strike I made, like he hadn't expected this from me.
He stepped right up, smirking at me. "Xeyer bro, you really are something." He said, not exactly friendly and it hit hard.
I didn't want to speak, but something in me made me do it anyway. "It's just the beginning."
Our fight lasted longer than I thought. We kept blocking each other, like a steady back and forth. It went on for an hour or more. We were gasping for air, yet kept fighting like it mattered for our life.
The evening had fallen into a winter night, only our house, the glowing sword, and the neighbors' windows broke through the darkness.
"Come on Xey, show him what you got!" Li Xifeng cheered for me, practically glowing with excitement. His eyes fixed on me.
"Hey!? We're here too." Kevin shouted between breaths. The game looked easy, but it was kind of difficult to bring it to an end.
Never judge a game by its cover.
"Come on TEAM; DRAGON'S LEADER! You can do it." Li Xifeng cheered for me once again.
"Someone's cheering a little louder for you, huh?" David teased, a mischievous smile spreading across his face.
I glanced away, a small, shy smile finding its way onto my face.
